Thanks Mark - I look forward to hearing your review. I'm almost tempted
to run out right now (perhaps it's good that my lunch break has already
passed) and buy an xbox!
If I do anything, I will certainly post what I learn here as well.

Michael,
I'm being careful as I don't want to hurt my kid's XBox but
apparently Dynebolics has a LiveCD that boots on XBox. I'm downloading
it and intended to try booting it today or tomorrow and see what
happens. If I could use that for playing PVR recorded video it would
be great as the thing is always attached to the TV anyway.
I'll report back if someone else doesn't chime in first.
Take care,
Mark

Isn't it true though that the X-Box requires a hardware modification
(like soldering in a new BIOS or something) in order to run Linux? Or
is this no longer true?
Yes, that's true.
No, I think it's not true, or at least according to the Linux-xbox page:

Thanks for finding that, Mark. I'm in the market for a cheap linux box
and had discounted the xbox for this reason. Now I think it's exactly what I
need.
